Added to our Gallery today are screencaptures from the 2009 documentary film The September Issue, which chronicled the making of the September issue of US Vogue magazine back in 2007. Sienna was on the cover of that issue, and the documentary shows brief footage of her photoshoot for the magazine, and the magazine staff putting together her spread. I loved seeing Sienna embrace the clothes as she walked into the Vogue offices – it was clear how much she loved them!

THE Miller sisters may have split as business partners, having both left Twenty8Twelve, but the move may not spell the end of their working relationship forever.

“[Working together] seems to be a natural thing for us and because we live together I am always asking Sienna’s opinion as a second pair of eyes and someone who has phenomenal style and fashion foresight,” Savannah Miller told us. “I’m sure even if we aren’t working together officially, we will be in some way or other.”

And the best part of working with her little sister?

“We could second guess each other and she is my best friend in the world, so it was heaven to have a great excuse to spend even more time together,” she said.

Despite claims that the pair left the label due to commitments to their children (Sienna’s family confirmed her pregnancy last week), the VOGUE.COM blogger and designer asserts that the decision came after the license has expired – sparking a desire for them both to “move on”.

“A few people have said that we left to concentrate on our babies, which isn’t true at all,” she said. “I have three babies and have always continued working alongside being a mum, which is hard but so rewarding. My work is such a big part of who I am and I think having something that is just mine makes me a better mother and wife.”

Although she doesn’t want to give too much away just yet, Miller has big fashion plans for the future.

“All will be revealed in the not too distant future, but I am super excited about it,” she told us. “I’ve got some amazing new business partners and I think the future is going to be a lot of fun.”

This has come as quite a shock! What are your thoughts on this?

SIENNA and Savannah Miller are leaving Twenty8Twelve to focus on new ventures, after a six year stint as co-creative directors of the label. The line will continue under its existing design team.

“We felt it was time to move on,” Savannah Miller told us this morning. “We had an amazing six years and we wish the brand all the best for the future.”

The label’s London Fashion Week show will still take place on February 18 as planned, but from autumn/winter 2012-13 the brand will be renamed Twenty8Twelve London, rather than Twenty8Twelve by s.miller.

“We’ve had a great partnership with the Miller sisters,” said the brand’s managing director Nish Soneji. “From the beginning, our mission was to create a contemporary label with its own identity and strong directional design, as well as an emphasis on quality, cut and finishing. That vision, along with the uniquely British style the collection has become known for, will continue under the direction of the Twenty8Twelve design team. Sienna and Savannah will forever be a part of Twenty8Twelve’s history and we wish them all the best.”

“We have had a brilliant six years at Twenty8Twelve and are now looking forward to pastures new,” the siblings said in a statement. “We wish the brand the best of luck for the future.”

Celebrities have been clearing out their designer wardrobes to support the Wrap Up Against Poverty 2012 initiative

Set up by the national charity Elizabeth Finn Care the initiative aims to raise vital funds for those who cannot afford essential clothing.

Items that will be auctioned on eBay to raise funds include a chic leather jacket from Sienna Miller, a vibrant purple Alberta Ferretti coat from Dame Helen Mirren and a cosy Missoni jumper from Richard Branson.

According to the Elizabeth Finn Care charity there are 13.5 million people living below the poverty line in the UK.

Malcolm Tyndall, director of the charity explained that funds raised from the auction will enable them, ‘to help even more people find and access the help they desperately need.’

Lisa Snowdon who donated a Chanel hat, explained that she got involved because: ‘It’s unbelievable to think that so many people go without warm clothes through the winter, and by bidding in the auction everyone can help to change lives for the better.’

The auction takes place from the 26th January to the 26th February.

Actress and activist Sienna Miller has personally selected a variety of clothing and accessories from her own closet to be auctioned off through eBay to benefit International Medical Corps. A long-time spokesperson and Global Ambassador for the humanitarian relief organization, Miller has visited field programs in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Haiti and most recently, Ethiopia to raise awareness of the ongoing famine.

“This is an organization that is very close to my heart,” said Miller. “After seeing International Medical Corps’ courageous work up-close I was determined to become more involved. These people work in the toughest conditions imaginable, saving lives every single day, and bringing self-reliance and hope to the world’s most vulnerable people. I am honored to be their mbassador.”

Running from November 7th-17th at www.siennamillerauctions.com on eBay, the auction features gowns worn by the actress to industry events, as well as fashionable, more everyday items selected by Miller. With no minimum bids, even the budget-conscious can own a piece of Miller’s closet, with all proceeds going to International Medical Corps health care relief efforts around-the-world. Items include jackets, dresses, jeans, skirts, pants, shorts, tops, boots, handbags, heels and hats.

Since its founding in 1984, International Medical Corps has delivered more than $1.1 billion in emergency relief and health care services to tens of millions of people in over 65 countries, including during the crisis in Darfur, the Indian Ocean tsunami, the earthquake in Haiti, and the ongoing famine in East Africa.

Miller will receive the Global Activist Award at International Medical Corps’ 2011 Annual Awards Celebration on November 8th recognizing her remarkable commitment to the organization and advocacy for those in greatest need. As Global Ambassador, she has tirelessly supported International Medical Corps’ mission, bringing its humanitarian efforts to a worldwide audience.

I just came across this bit of news from June this year, and realised I hadn’t posted it before so though better late than never Unfortunately the item is no longer available, but you can see a picture of it below.

Sienna Miller is JewelMint’s Latest Celeb Curator!

Sienna Miller has some of the most enviable style instincts on the planet, and now one of her personal picks can be yours for only $30!

I’m finally getting round to catching up on missing appearance photos from this year (sorry about my absence!), and to start with I’ve added over 100 HQ photos of Sienna and Savannah launching their (then) new Twenty8Twelve collection at Selfridges earlier this year. Sienna looks so pretty and her hair and make-up are perfect!

Savannah Miller of Twenty8Twelve Talks Fall Fashion & Dream Collaborations

While Twenty8Twelve might not be showing on the runway this fashion month, we’re sure to see looks from the British label’s latest collection on the streets. Co-creative directors (and sisters) Savannah and Sienna Miller have turned out another stellar season for their celebrated line, which is favored by a laundry list of celebrities, bloggers, and editors for its modern approach to retro fashion. To ring in the debut of the brand’s AW11 offerings, Savannah took some time out to give us the scoop on “The Burnettes and Burlinson” collection’s inspiration, her and her sister’s favorite pieces, and the two high-fashion designers with whom she’d love to design a capsule collection.

How was the label started? Were you and Sienna always into fashion?
From day one, Sienna was writing plays, and I was creating her costumes. She’s my other half, and creating a line seemed like the most logical next step to take. When we were approached by Spanish entrepreneur Carlos Ortega to turn that dream in to a reality, it felt like a logical and organic step to take. Twenty8Twelve was born, and the rest is history. Our emphasis is on quality, cut and finishing – beautifully finished denim, luxurious knitwear, perfectly cut dresses, casual pieces and coats. The vision and essence for the label lies in old time tailoring techniques. We create sophisticated garments with a vintage feel but contemporary vibe, with a strong directional design.

What inspired the AW11 collection?
This fall, we tried not to get to weighed down by theme. Instead, we tried to create the ultimate winter wardrobe – the perfect coat, the perfect trousers, the perfect dress, etc. We let our themes lead us for color. I stumbled across an old Italia Vogue shoot that was done at our boarding school, Heathfield. The girls had been styled as boys in a ‘90s rockabilly tribute. It was beautiful and very inspiring. I remember the casting director wandering around the school, picking the strangest looking girls and all the pretty girls complaining because they wanted to be in the photo shoot. We all thought the hair and make up and styling was really weird, but looking back on it now I see how directional and visionary they were. These pictures totally led our delivery. We paid tribute to the restraint of school uniform and the magic of rebellious schoolgirls somehow managing to break the confines and make it their own.

Back in August Sienna was announced as the new face of Turkish clothing brand Network! She will be the face of the brand for 2 seasons. From what I have managed to translate, Network is an elegant, high quality brand that aims to infuse classic and modern designs to create timeless pieces, that have a touch of futuristic appeal. They seem to be trying to re-vamp their image, launching a new perfume as well as having Sienna as their new face, with a press release saying: “The new brand will be different from the others as young and dynamic.”

The campaign photoshoot was shot in London this past Spring, and took 6 hours to shoot. Sienna herself chose Japanese photographer Takay to shoot the campaign. Make-up was by Lucia Pica, hair by Luke Hersherson, and styling by Monica Pillosio.

Visit Network’s site at network-tr.com to see their collection, plus click the Videos link there to find several videos of Sienna posing for the 2012 Winter collection as well as backstage footage.

Photos and screencaps will be added into our Gallery asap.

Further down this post are a couple of articles in Turkish, and then translated into English using Google Translator. This includes a fantastic, long interview in which Sienna talks about why she chose to promote this brand, her style and her life. Any of our Turkish speaking visitors will be able to fully enjoy these articles, but for those of us that do not speak the language, the translation will give you a basic idea of what is being said.

Miller sisters couldn’t be closer

SIENNA Miller is bouncing off the walls with excitement. The reviews are out for Flare Path, her new play on London’s West End.

And for perhaps the first time in her career, the 29-year-old has been given rave write-ups across the board in what critics universally consider to be a five-star production.

“It’s a wonderful feeling – and a new one for me – to be in something that’s well-reviewed,” she says, her blue eyes welling up.

Her family was there in force last night. “The theatre was full of people whooping and cheering,” says the actor’s older sister, Savannah, 32. “It’s nice that the world is finally seeing my sister the way I do.”

The Millers don’t normally read Sienna’s press if they can avoid it (“We have a ‘no Google’ policy,” explains Sienna), but today they’ve made an exception. This morning, her publicist called with the good news and was permitted to read her a few lines. “I’d said to everyone, ‘I don’t want to know.’ I wasn’t expecting great reviews.” says Sienna.

“I just don’t read things. If you believe the good, you have to believe the bad, and I’d rather not give any belief to anything.”
